Kanye West....the state of the music industry
Just got the new Kanye album & its very good! He's released 5 solo albums now & all of them have sold HUGE amounts( all have gone platinum, which means they've sold over 1 million. Apart from 808's the rest have all sold over 2 million) now we keep hearing how the music industry is dead, but then we see adverts on TV pronouncing "The biggest selling artist since...." If you have good songs people will still buy the music. I know its an old debate but people have always copied & traded music...& they always will!....which brings me to my next point! ISP's charge ridiculous amounts for our Internet connections. Why? ...because they can! Telecom has a monopoly in this country. How much money did Telecom make last year? about 400million I think..... we all use the net to download our fave movies & music, watch vids on youtube & generally soak up a lot of media. Maybe the ISP's & phone companies that are all posting MASSIVE prof...
